FAQ
Answer: No. The Hudu Radar collector only needs to be installed on a single device within the client’s environment, not on every workstation. MSPs typically install it on a secure server or management device that only the MSP controls and has access to. As a best practice, if Radar is installed on a Domain Controller or other privileged system, end users should not have access to that device. Access should remain restricted to those who have access to your Hudu instance.
